"The very first X-Men changed comic book movies," Jackman said about the original film that kicked the franchise off in 2000. "Beyond the fantasy of these characters there is something intrinsically human about them," he continues.
"It's just really exciting to be a part of something that people have loved for generations," Turner says.
The featurette ends by announcing that tickets for Dark Phoenix are on sale now. The film, which will follow Jen Grey's transformation into the all-powerful Phoenix and her battle with the X-Men, is set to arrive in theaters on June 7.
